Deputy Chair, if the Minister fails within rules to reply written question; it gets transferred for oral reply in the
House. The Minister simply did not bother to reply to the written question, that is why it's on the order paper as an oral question today. My question is why he did not bother to reply this question when it was asked as a written question, so much so that it has to be transferred for oral reply today. The Minister should stick to the rules and reply to our written questions, and then he wouldn't have to answer them in the House.
